Três Metros Acima do Céu

Good PG movie, good editing and I liked the music.

The landscape, the plot and the story are beautiful with major themes such as teenage years and the beginning of the adulthood, the absence of parenthood, choices for the future. Characters are moving but the main character, Summer, is boring and selfish. She hurts her friends, family and boyfriend without even think of consequences. She's stubborn and not funny contrary to the others.

Nevertheless, this summer story is enjoyable.

Really saddens me to write this review as I really wanted this series to be great. I wanted it to be amazing, especially because Italian cinema generally erases the existence of people of colour in Italy. It only uses them as background or props so I was very excited to see something different. The scenery and cinematography are beautiful, lots of vivid bright colours and scenic shots... BUT nothing really happens, I persevered and watched the whole series and there's just no drama, suspense, humour or great romance that you could care about... or just anything. The script is very wooden, the interactions don't really flow, it's as if they're cut off and the stories aren't developed enough for us. I feel sorry for the lead actress as she she should have been given better material. Her, her mother and her guy's friend are the most interesting characters but still they're not doing much. It's hard to explain, but I felt like I watched it just waiting for something of interest to happen and it just didn't. There is so much missed opportunity character development and juicy storylines, but somehow they missed it all. Like it's a very average series, some will enjoy it as it's pretty to watch, a nice time filler at best but that's it.

I really like this series and I felt like the cast selection was great. But I didn't feel the chemistry nor the passion from Summer. She seems like she has a chip on her shoulder at all times and that the world owes her so much. I don't see the chemistry between her and Ale and that's very disappointing. Blue and summer have the same type of energy and it's not really for me but the show is amazing if you can get through Summer and Blues energy. They always both seem like they're depressed and expect so much from everybody and like somebody owes them something. They take no responsibility for their own actions and that somehow a little bit points me in the other direction. But I look forward to the rest of the cast to brighten up the show as they're all amazing and have so much energy.

Perfect song choices, nice vivid colors but boring story. I don't know why but I just loved Summy's mother. She was so natural. You can watch but don't expect lots of things.
